Changing Colors in HTML

Up until now, your pages have been black text on a white
background. But that is boring, so today you'll learn how to
add some color to your web page.

Start by opening your latest version of your page
(test2.html or test3.html or similar). Use "Save
as..." to save a new copy of your page as "testcolor.html".

Colors in HTML are listed by the amount of three colors -
red, green and blue - that they contain. To confuse you even
more, you don't just list those numbers. You have to convert
the numbers into a special numbering system called "Hexidecimal"
notation.

But don't worry - you don't need to know the RGB
(red/green/blue) or the hexidecimal for any color to add it.
Luckily, some nice people have put up very good graphics
that show all 216 colors you can use in a web page.
